As the Cantabrian Sea bathes the entire northern coast, it has a multitude of diving spots along the entire coast.
The north of Spain is a great unknown at a national level among the diving community, but its biodiversity is surprising, perhaps not as overexploited at the fishing level as the Mediterranean and its underwater landscapes carved by the onslaught of a rough sea in the winter season.
Perhaps its most emblematic diving spot is the surroundings of the Bay of Santander, the Island of Mouro and the sunken wrecks found nearby.
The diving season in Cantabria runs from late April - early May until late October, when the water temperature starts to drop and swells come in, making it difficult to enjoy the diving spots.
